What worry me now is that my ISP will throw me out each 30 minutes.
But most likely me can just autoconnect each time.

Thanks nooby to infome me. I was not aware of such an ISP.
I was wondering why Pwireless2 (and SNS too?) rerun the dhcpcd with some interval.
It is annoying for the people who are using continuous connection.
Think the Network Wizard need to have such function as an option.
But i am not sure what happens for each strategy._________________Downloads for Puppy Linux http://shino.pos.to/linux/downloads.html

Install, say somepackege-1.0.pet, unistall it, then again install the same package or the same package updated, say somepackage-1.1.pet .
The files somepackage must recover in most case.
But recent PPM with frugal install, the PPM shows no error but the files disappear.
In case uninstall, then reboot PC, and re-install the package, the files recover with no problem.

Installing some packages which has files under '/mnt/home', the PPM shows no error but the files under '/mnt/home' disappear.

REASON
There is a bug at the code add on 26 Apr 2010 and later, for boot from flash, bypass tmpfs top layer, install direct to pup_save file.

SOLUTION
Attached /usr/local/petget/installpkg.sh bugfixed.
It is for next release on LupQ(-510), but may work on any Puppies 4.x/5.x.
Note: the encounter measure for the problem 2, is already implemented in the LupQ-509.
Bugfix against the problem 1 is the new code from the LupQ-509._________________Downloads for Puppy Linux http://shino.pos.to/linux/downloads.html

I try to play .rm and .ram files. I guess that is RealAudioMedia or maybe RealMovie? for .rm?

I don't know the detail of the RealMedia and where can i get the sample movie.
It depends on the version of the RealMedia created.
I have some .rm video files i created some years ago and it plays with the defaultmediaplayer(GNOME Mplayer) on LupQ with no problem.

Many media players available for Lupu/LupQ. I am not sure which plays which type of files.
Here is a new version of FFmpeg with FFplay and FFconvert for LupQ._________________Downloads for Puppy Linux http://shino.pos.to/linux/downloads.html

Smokey says Quote:
I'm a little confused about Gxine. The one I am using in lupu-5.0 is the one that came with 5.0. Are you saying you are having problems with it? I will see if I can find a copy and try it in lupu-507.

Playdays says:
Yes smokey, I used the pets gxine, xine-lib, and mplayer_codecs_basic that were installed in Lucid Pup 5.0, and installed them in 507 and the resulting gxine runs but it does not play everything it should--in fact it only plays a few things,.

It plays mpg video and mp3 audio and maybe some others but not most video and not flac audio.

There must be something else that is in 5.0, well duh, but I don't have time to chase it down right now. If you did then I would put it into PPM in time for the release of 5.1. Thanks.

I remember that when we made the shift from gxine and installed a pet of mplayer to test, someone reported that it made gxine not work as well anymore. But I would like to have it for PPM for sure if it could be compatible.

so maybe they had no time to find out how to get them to coexist?

I maybe looked too hastely but found not GXine in the PPM.

I think me have GXine in Quirky? Not sure though. Would be cool to be able to run RealAudioQuicktime in LupQ too.

Maybe the files I have on my computer is from an older RAM say 2008 or 2009 and they changed some codec or so?_________________I use Google Search on Puppy Forum
not an ideal solution though

Internet Broadband : OK
Printed from geany without even printing the testpage

ICEWM hasn`t any Menu as far as I can see and there is no WM switcher at both WM

Midori is freezing sometimes or killed all of a sudden at all puppies somehow. Even the installation of the larger Midori at other Puppies from technosaurus post for midori seems to be just a little better for that. Also SeaMonkey at dpup-005 shows such behaviour .....

Oh my...
Abiword is 16.9MB but becomes 5.6MB after stripped!
I wonder why no one have not ever realized?
And why it occurs if the Lucid Puppy was build by the woof?_________________Downloads for Puppy Linux http://shino.pos.to/linux/downloads.html

Bonjour shinobar,
"merci " for your time and energy with this new lupq-510 !
I will test it in a short future.
Here on lupq-509 using only midori for googling some information, when clicking to download a pdf file, there came a 1st dialog box asking whether to save/save as/cancel/open;
if click on open, then a dialog box "Encrypted Document" asks for password.
if click on save, then the well saved pdf file can be normaly opened whithout any password- nor encryption- warning.
I installed Panzerkopf forum member's "gv.gz" (see link here after)
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=428669&sid=ff289a383e8df15d6e39222
but without any change.
On another PC + lupq-509 + Panserkopf's gv.gz + Firefox browser, the same pdf document is opened without any warning.

Is this another "limit" of midori.?

problem:
Early this morning, a couple of minute after bootup, I opened midori + moved the mouse cursor rather fastly across the screen while DSL modem connection process to internet (not yet achieved at that moment), X server hanged up - i.e. got a black screen and the following comments:
